YAMASAN KYOTO UJI Red Miso Paste – Naturally Fermented Shinshu, Non-GMO, No MSG, 300g

Traditional Shinshu Miso, Crafted in Japan

YAMASAN KYOTO UJI Red Miso Paste is a celebration of Shinshu miso—the classic Japanese paste crafted from soybeans and rice koji. Its light golden hue hints at a layered, savory aroma and a bold yet balanced umami that emerges from slow, natural fermentation. This isn’t a quick mix; it’s a product built on centuries of craft designed to elevate everyday meals with depth and nuance.

Our paste is traditionally brewed and naturally aged without heat, a process handed down for over a thousand years. In cool, steady conditions, the flavors develop complexity and a nuanced aroma, creating a miso that stands out in everyday cooking while staying true to its origins. The result is a versatile, authentic flavor profile that respects traditional methods while fitting modern kitchens.

From Premium Japanese Ingredients to Pure Craft

We source soybeans from Akita Prefecture, use top-grade Koshihikari rice, and rely on pristine underground spring water from the Yatsugatake Mountains. Fermented and matured at our Yatsugatake Natural Brewery at 850 meters, this red miso paste embodies accuracy, purity, and time-honored technique.
